#7 If the dog grows up with a cat from an early age, nothing speaks against their living together.
The same goes for children, which is why Shelties make very good family dogs. They are not easily irritated and give themselves completely to their familiar surroundings. Nevertheless, you need loving contact and you should make that clear to the children.
#8 Shelties are also basically suitable for seniors because of their loyalty to their owners.
However, they also need a lot of exercise and attention. Therefore, older people should only opt for a Sheltie if they still exercise often and like to do so.
#9 Shelties are real noses when it comes to perceiving the mood in their environment and are considered an encouraging comforter when you are not feeling so well.
Therefore, dogs also need loving people, as they react very sensitively to moods.
